Today is the last day for our Hilo Labor Law Enforcement Specialist (LLES), Lori Hamada. She is retiring from State employment after 31 years, 23 of them with Wage Standards! Our best wishes for a happy and healthy retirement for Lori, she has given so much to the Wage Standards Division and the Hilo District Office. The most important part of her job was serving the community, assisting employers with compliance and recovering unpaid wages for employees of Hawaii Island.
Calls forwarded to Oahu
We recognize that Lori has been a resource for employers asking about guidance for compliance and employees seeking assistance in getting their earned wages. The Hilo phone number will still be active but all calls will be forwarded to Oahu specialists. Questions and complaints will be resolved by specialists on Oahu, Maui, and Kauai as they are available.
Limited Walk-in Service available in Hilo
Sixteen and seventeen year olds will still be able to obtain child labor permits at the counter, although we encourage all teens to go online to apply. Complaints can also be brought to the counter in Hilo, but faxing or mailing them to Oahu will be the most direct route. Our Oahu address and contact information on Oahu is:
830 Punchbowl Street, Room 340
Honolulu, Hawaii 96813
Phone: (808) 586-8777
Fax: (808) 586-8766
Thank you for your patience until we can get a replacement.
